what kind of asshole?

Sometimes I am encouraged by humanity; sometimes I am disgusted by humanity.

For instance, I am encouraged by Bernie Sanders' fight for social justice and a more equitable nation and I'm very encouraged by all the millions who are supporting him.

On the other hand, I am disgusted by the egomaniac and narcissist dickhead Donald Trump. I'm really disgusted by the millions who are supporting him.

But that's not what this post is about.

It's about the disgusting acts of just a single individual. This deed's effect is tiny. This dick will not spur a global economic panic; he will not shatter any alliances; he's not going to drop bombs here and there. His big impact is a toilet seat covered in piss.What kind of asshole leaves the toilet seat down in one of the company's bathrooms and pisses all over the toilet seat? There are three urinals just a few feet away, and nobody ever uses the one in the middle. And even if all three urinals are occupied, it takes a special person to not bother raising the toilet seat and just letting it rip.Maybe a co-worker starting to suffer dementia?Maybe it was an older guy who just cannot hold his pee very well any longer.Maybe it's a oil-company-hater (and there are many, justifiably so) who performs small acts of civil disobedience, like pissing all over the toilet seat in a Men's bathroom.Or maybe it's just a dick who doesn't give a shit about anyone else and will do whatever the fuck he wants, when he wants to.You know, a Donald Trump voter. I'll never be able to prove it, but I'll bet the pissin' perp in question is going to vote for Donald Trump.

Occasionally Clickable Quotes and/or Jokes

If we are honest - and scientists have to be - we must admit that religion is a jumble of false assertions, with no basis in reality. The very idea of God is a product of the human imagination. If religion is still being taught, it is by no means because its ideas still convince us, but simply because some of us want to keep the lower classes quiet.

Public prayer is not intended to promote religious values, but to enhance the authority of some churches and some political views over others. Similarly with the posting of the Ten Commandments. It is about power, not about religion. Government by Christian or Islamic or any other faith has rarely been progressive. And the Constitution clearly intends that there should be freedom from religion.
